Chapter 104: A Power Play

The entire set turned their heads in the same direction.Sure enough, Liam Hart was speaking with Mia Stone. And it wasn’t a casual conversation—there was tension thick in the air.Their voices were low, but the frustration was obvious. Then, suddenly, Mia turned sharply on her heel, her expression stormy. Liam wasn’t about to let her walk away so easily. In one swift motion, he grabbed her arm and pulled her into the lounge beside them, the door slamming shut behind them.The entire crew stared, mouths slightly open."Damn, Liam Hart really is the definition of ‘alpha male.’ The way he just took charge like that… whew.""Right? No wonder even a powerhouse like Mia Stone bends to him. I’d kill to be in her shoes.""You think they're... you know?"The set buzzed with speculation.Allie Brooks, for once, was thankful for the brutal treatment she’d just endured from Mia. At least the exhaustion left her no room to dwell on things that didn’t concern her.Julian Ford sauntered over, hands

Chapter 105: The Feast of Tensions

Allie knew that if Liam wanted to put on a show, he might as well go all out. Maybe then, once he had his fill of playing pretend, he’d finally sign those divorce papers.She was tired of this game.That evening, a large truck pulled up to the film set, catching everyone’s attention. Workers began unloading crate after crate of fresh seafood—lobster, abalone, mussels, even a whole tuna. A buzz of excitement spread through the crew as the word got around.Scarlett Renwick practically skipped over, eyes wide with excitement. “Oh my God, Mr. Hart really went all out! Australian lobster, abalone, mussels—he even flew in a Michelin-star chef just for us! We are so spoiled tonight.”The crew gathered in an open area that had been transformed into a lavish dining space. A long table, draped in crisp white linens, was set with an array of dishes that looked straight out of a high-end French restaurant. There were grilling stations, platters of delicacies, and even an entire section for prem

Chapter 106: A Game of Pride

Julian Ford sat across from Allie Brooks with a platter of grilled Argentine red shrimp, peeling one leisurely as he spoke."So, what’s your plan now?" Julian asked, his tone casual but laced with curiosity.Allie let out a slow breath. "I honestly don’t know."Liam Hart had torn up the divorce papers in front of her. There was no clear path forward, only a tangled mess of emotions and legalities.Julian leaned back, a smirk playing on his lips. "If you need a lawyer, I can make some calls."Allie shook her head. "I don’t want it to come to that. Dragging this into court would make everything public, and knowing Liam, he won’t let it go that far."Julian nodded, peeling another shrimp and offering it to her. "Here, try this."She hesitated, her brows furrowing. "Julian, don’t—""Liam’s watching," he murmured under his breath, eyes flickering toward the far side of the festival.Allie stiffened, instincts taking over as she reluctantly took the shrimp from Julian’s hand. His smirk wid

Chapter 107: Ties That Bind

The scent of whiskey clung to the air, sharp and unmistakable.Allie barely had a moment to react before Liam’s lips crashed onto hers.Her heartbeat thundered in her ears. His grip was firm but not forceful, his warmth intoxicating. But she wasn’t going to be swept away this time. With every ounce of strength, she shoved him back."Liam! What the hell do you think you’re doing?" she snapped, chest heaving.Liam staggered a step, lifting a hand to his mouth. His fingers brushed against the fresh mark on his lip where she’d bitten him in resistance. A thin line of crimson stood out against his pale skin.His eyes darkened, a storm brewing beneath the surface. "You bit me.""You deserved it," she shot back, eyes burning with fury. "Are you drunk? Is that your excuse for this?"Liam's expression shifted, the storm within him settling into something even more unreadable. Cold. Distant. "Do you really think I need an excuse?"Allie clenched her fists. "I don’t know what your problem is, bu

Chapter 108: Liam Hart as a Stand-In

A sharp voice cut through the tension in the room, and every head turned toward the entrance.Liam Hart stood in the doorway, his expression cold and unreadable. The air in the room seemed to drop several degrees, a suffocating silence following in his wake.Whispers rippled through the set.Wasn’t Mr. Hart supposed to be busy? Why did he always have time to check in on the crew? More importantly, why was he here when Mia Stone wasn’t even filming today?Mia was present, though. She stood near the monitors, arms folded, her expression barely concealing her irritation. She had no lines in this scene, yet she lingered, watching.And now, so was he.Allie felt her stomach twist with dread. What was Liam doing here?Then, under the watchful eyes of the entire crew, he strode toward her and, in an icy tone, declared, “No intimate scenes. Use a stand-in.”A collective gasp filled the space.Had Liam Hart just forbidden Allison Brooks from filming an intimate scene?The weight of his words h

Chapter 109: Public Humiliation

Liam Hart had just finished changing clothes when the whispers around the set grew louder.“What’s going on between Allie and Mr. Hart?” someone murmured.“Isn’t Liam supposed to marry Mia Stone? Why would he take the initiative to shoot an intimate scene with Allie in front of Mia?”“I heard Allie only got this role because she has a powerful backer. Looks like Liam is that backer.”“I never thought she was that type,” another sneered. “She always seemed so innocent.”Vivian Brooks stood among the crowd, her hands clenched into fists. Fury burned in her veins.She had suspected something between Allie and Liam for a while, but this?This was a public spectacle.She had always believed Allie was a self-righteous hypocrite, pretending to be pure while secretly climbing her way up.Liam finally emerged from the dressing room, exuding his usual calm arrogance.The director stepped forward, explaining the changes to the scene. Since the stunt double had been replaced, Allie was now the ce

Chapter 110: The Truth About Liam Hart

The moment Ethan Blackwell’s lips met Laura Peterson’s, the entire set fell silent. The kiss was electrifying, raw with an intensity that sent shivers down the spines of every onlooker. Gasps and whispers rippled through the crowd as they watched Liam Hart bring his character to life with a level of dominance that had every woman on set swooning.Even off-screen, Liam Hart’s presence was magnetic. His brooding charm, the way he commanded a scene—there was no denying that he fit the role perfectly.But Allie barely registered any of it. Her head was spinning, not from the wine she had earlier but from everything that had unraveled tonight.Scarlett Renwick rushed to her side, gripping her arm. "Allie, are you okay? You look like you’ve seen a ghost."Allie forced a weak smile. "I’m fine. Just a little lightheaded."Director Samuel Jackson’s booming voice cut through the murmurs. "That was perfect! Allie, your expression, the way you looked at Liam—pure admiration, longing. Completely n

Chapter 111 - He Never Loved Me

Allie sighed: “We are really married, but we will be divorced soon.”Scarlett’s eyes widened in disbelief. "How can this be?" she asked, her voice laced with shock.Allie turned onto her side, staring at the ceiling. "The truth is simple. He doesn’t love me. I was just a distraction. A temporary fix."Scarlett watched her carefully, as if trying to piece together the puzzle herself.Fairy tales always have a prince who is meant to be with a princess. But reality? Reality was far crueler.Scarlett sighed, deciding not to push. She knew Allie well enough to recognize when her walls were up.Just then, Allie’s phone buzzed on the nightstand. She hesitated, but when she saw the name flashing on the screen—Liam Hart—her pulse quickened.She debated ignoring it. Letting it ring until it faded into silence. But instead, she picked up.Liam’s voice, smooth and commanding, carried through the speaker. "Why aren’t you home yet?"Allie swallowed hard. "I’m not coming back. There’s an early annou

Chapter 112: A Shift in Perspective

Allie’s hands curled into fists as she glared at Liam.“I don’t care anymore, Liam. Julian is better than you, and at least he doesn’t treat me like I’m disposable. I won’t waste my breath arguing. If you don’t sign the divorce papers, I’ll take this to court. Let’s see if you can keep your secrets under wraps then.”Liam’s expression didn’t change, but his knuckles turned white. A storm brewed behind his cold eyes, his fury barely restrained.She had done it again.Allie Brooks was the only woman who could push him to the edge this easily. Three days, three times she had demanded a divorce.His voice dropped, dangerously soft. “Allie, when I married you, I forgot to mention something. There’s no word for ‘divorce’ in my dictionary. Only ‘widow.’”Allie’s breath caught.The venom in his words was unlike anything she had ever heard from him. A chill ran down her spine, but she refused to show fear. She clenched her jaw and stared him down, refusing to give him the satisfaction of seein

Chapter 113: The Reckoning

Vivian Brooks was ecstatic.Someone like Liam Hart—powerful, untouchable—could only be toying with Allison Brooks. That much was obvious.Now that everything was out in the open, Allison had become nothing more than a liability. He would discard her without a second thought, and Vivian couldn’t wait to see it happen—to watch her perfect sister fall from grace and crash into the dirt where she belonged.Although the scandal was making waves, the morning’s filming continued as usual. Nobody spoke about it, but the weight of unspoken words hung in the air.During lunch, Allison’s phone buzzed.A message. From Liam.“Two o’clock. President’s conference room. Hart Enterprises. We’re putting an end to this.”Her fingers tightened around her phone. Ten minutes passed, and still, she stared at the screen, her heart clenched like a fist.So this was it. The end.She had known it was coming, but knowing didn’t make it hurt any less.Was Liam finally done playing this game? Should she feel relie
